Multimeter kits are an easy way to get a multimeter and the multimeter accessories you'll need, all packaged together. Multimeters come in either digital or analogue formats and are easy-to-use devices for measuring voltage, current and resistance in electrical circuits. They're used for electrical testing and troubleshooting in both domestic and industrial situations.
What's in a multimeter kit?
Multimeter kits typically include a digital multimeter and a selection of test lead sets, alligator clips, probes and adapters. Some feature a clamp meter and many have magnetic hangers and handy carrying cases that incorporate pocketed roll-up pouches to keep all of your accessories safe and organised.
Choosing the right multimeter kit
Choosing the right kit will depend on how you plan to use your multimeter. Larger bench multimeters are most likely to used in the workshop; handheld multimeters are useful for on-the-go tasks or hard-to-reach places. There are multimeter kits suitable for everything from domestic use to industrial fault finding, and combo kits for electricians are also available.
